Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United StatesI did not like the alley you had to go down to enter the riad. It was a little dark. With that said, I never stayed out after dark so I never felt unsafe.
I loved the location being a short walk to the entrance of the medina. Doha was pleasant and communicated well in English in my one interaction with her. She even suggested where I should travel to next. The breakfast consisted of various breads and drink.

Doha is the jewel in the crown of this lovely Riad which is a few steps away from the main drag of the Medina and near the blue Gate to get in and out from transfers/for excursions etc. She made our stay welcoming, friendly and super helpful, with support, advice and information on sights, restaurants and when my son was too ill to travel, she rearranged our tour to the Sahara for another 24hrs to allow for his recovery. Even after we left she was still checking in on us. The room and beds were comfortable and clean and the shower was great. It felt safe and was a shady respite from the heat of Fes. Lovely!

United KingdomThe toilets were clean but smelled, not sure if it's because of the overall sewer system of medina.
The Riad manager was helpful. The location was close to the entrance of Medina which was I think better than being in the central Medina.

SpainThe room is quite small for family with 2 children. if you bring 3 suitcase, make the room full. But it is not big deal because the owner is so profesional and helpfull.
Doha and his brother are so kind and helpful. They explained everything at the beginning, including the safe and dangerous areas in the neighborhood. They are so professional. It is also lecated in the lively street so make us more excited to go around. I also join their tour to other cities. I recomend this Riad. The rate per night also affordable.
